Description Ofu Island, The National Park of American Samoa.

Credit Hemingway for the title. I'm not sure if the old man of the sea ever made it to the South Pacific, but I'm sure he would have really enjoyed the Manua islands here in American Samoa. These are some of the most magnificent islands in the world and they are way off the radar of most travelers and photographers.

The owners of our island lodge have only seen one tourist since we left there in early October! It's a remote and wild South Pacific paradise you can have all to yourself...
